And here we have Idaho


Congratulations to Steve who is now certifiably licensed to practice law in the great state of Idaho. See it for yourself here. Apparently, my brother Ryan also took and passed the Idaho Bar, which explains his recent bout of overworkedness.

Hooray for Steve. Two states down, 48 to go!

Does he really have to get certified in all 50 states or is it just one of his personal "I like to do this in my free time" goals?! Anyway, congrats!

Props to Steve. I'm not sure most people would like to pass a bar in even one state, so he's way ahead of the rest of us.

Is he taking Utah's bar? Or is there reciprocity between UT and AZ?

If we ever cross over the Idaho state line together, I could sing the state song for you. AG

Lyndzee, no he doesn't. It was just a joke.

Pepper, yes, he will take the UT bar in July. Fun times.

Nice work Steve! Did Ryan really take the Idaho bar just for kicks? Maybe he and Steve can support the justice system in Salmon some day.

I'm thinking Ryan Dean could pass the bar as easily as Ryan Kent did.

Another taboo topic: money

I don't have a lot of real visible or artistic talents, but one talent that has served me well is an ability to manage and organize money well. A few of my sisters-in-law have asked me how I do the family budget, so this is a straight up accounting of how I do the accounting. When we get a paycheck: 10% tithing right off the top Then, with the remainder (net minus tithing), I divy it up into percentages and put money into different "funds" -- that I keep track of in the back of my paycheck because I'm old school like that. Mortgage: I figure out the percentage it will take to cover my mortgage. Usually 29-30%. I think this percentage needs to stay under 35% of take-home after tithing. Baby steps: 20% goes to meeting financial goals a la Dave Ramsey's baby steps. This means that you focus on one thing at a time, leaving the rest so that your money is not so thinly spread and you can make visible progress. This presupposes that one has abandoned using credit, and i...

Two things

First and foremost, happy birthday to my wonderful mom! I honestly don't know anyone more generous, giving or good with people. I like to think of myself as being generous, giving and good with people, but I've got nothing on her . She schools me, bigtime. Some of the unique things that make my mom my mom: She loves my children absolutely, which is a joy and a comfort to me. When she is around, they prefer her to me. She would rather be with her grandchildren than out with the adults, but does not relax when they are around. It's constant counting heads, making snowcones, taking off too-warm clothing, changing diapers, getting drinks. It's exhausting, and she's good at it. And she loves it. (I'm pretty sure.) She hates flying, but flies all over the place, because travel and culture and enriching experiences and seeing family trump her fears every time. She also hates bridges. And swimming. And confrontation. And cooking. And bad grammar. And dopey people. And a...
